7 days before polls close: "If TMac doesn't win by 10%, Democrats are doomed for next year!"
10 seconds before polls close: "Actually, if TMac doesn't win by 20%, Democrats are doomed for next year!"
TMac projected to win Virginia by 15%: "Welp, Democrats are in trouble"
Well TMac's not gonna win by Virginia. But you could replace VA with "CA" and this basically explains the timeline of the CA recall bulls*** we were all subjected to for a month here.
Oh I know. But TMac could beat everyone's expectations and win by double-digits yet even that would be considered "catastrophic" because reasons.
It's almost like this race doesn't matter in regards to 2022 because folks will just regress to their preconceived notions anyway.
